B O O K     R E V I E W S     &     t e s t i m o n i a l s

​Hi Ms. Landy,
     I hope this email finds you well!

     You have no idea the impact that you and your book have had on little Nicholas.  He showed no interest in books until reading "Adventures with Zap".  He was so excited to write to you; he insisted that I find a physical mailing address se he could write to you.  Even more excited was when I showed him this email and he read your note. Thanks so much for inspiring him and peaking his interest in the wonderful world of reading!
                                                   Your friends,
                                                   Nicholas and Juan-Carolos Fernandez
"Both simple and clever. Kids won't realize how much they are learning as they have
fun writing and drawing with Zap. And what's this? A creative star award at the end!"


- Eve Bunting, Author of over 250 books for children

AUTHOR Interview with Elisa Agostino of
the Children's Trust - Miami Book Fair 11-17-18

"This is a fantastic, fantastic book... One of the things
that's of critical importance to The Trust is early literacy.
And something like this, where you're encouraging and empowering children from a very, very young age--I know
this is appropriate for preschoolers--it's a wonderful thing
​that you've done and we appreciate it."
"My six year old daughter said, 'This is actually fun!' and didn't want to stop writing.
She felt free to use her imagination while playing with Zap. What I liked best was she
tried to sound out words on her own and grew in confidence in her writing.
​We started the book on a snow day - a great time to break it in."


- Samantha Chain, Teacher & parent of an Ace Pilot Tester

"My son loves this book"

*****  Amazon FIVE STAR Review *****
"My son got this book as a gift from his mom. He wasted no time poring through
every page. Now he draws and writes in it each morning, a few pages at a time, at the breakfast table. As a first grader, he's not a confident writer yet, but Zap makes writing fun for him. He writes about his drawings and doesn't even realize he's practicing.   What a gem of a book!"


​- Michael Schaffer
​"This is exactly the kind of thing I look for every summer. 
Since I have kids at different levels, it was very helpful for them to see they could  
each use the book but in different ways. It's fantastic how many different types of
writing the author has worked into the book: letter writing, mimicking a phone call, 
creative writing,​ informational writing, etc. The brainstorming pages are fantastic."


- Christy Peterson, Children's book blogger & mother of four Ace Pilot Testers

"Adventures with Zap is a fun book to help spark a writing passion with your kids"  From video: "While this [book] offers creative prompts, it's so much more. Kids are brainstorming, they're drawing, they're getting their creative juices flowing. But most important, the thing I find is, they're not overwhelmed.... It is so easy to follow this workbook. It builds on skills and offers over and over:  fun and simple. A perfect way to get started."

  "What a great interactive book" 

* * * * * Five Star AMAZON Review (verified purchase) * * * * *
"I gave this book to a friend who has a 4 year old. I thought maybe it might be
too old for him but then she told me, "He went through it the first night and I had
​to literally put it on top of the refrigerator because he would not go to bed!
What a great interactive book! Thank you so much!"
